May 30, 2018 Solvang, California: Monty Roberts was named as one of the four finalists selected for the 2018 Equine Industry Vision Award sponsored by Zoetis. The Equine Industry Vision Award recognizes ingenuity and service as well as benefit to the equine industry by inspiring these qualities in others.

In addition to this honor, his team created and became a finalist in the AHP Equine Media Awards in the category of Editorial Infographic (print or online) entitled “New to Podcasts?” published October 2017 to help people learn through the Horsemanship Radio podcast.

The other three finalists for the Equine Industry Vision Award are Roxane Durant, co-founder and executive director of the Interscholastic Equestrian Association (IEA), David Jones, DVM, chairman for Brooke USA; former chairman of Brooke International and Jay Winborn, current executive director of the National Reined Cow Horse Association (NRCHA).

Monty Roberts is the founder of Join-Up International. From a very early age, Roberts was inspired to make his life’s goal to leave the world a better place than he found it, for horses and humans. Roberts has an extensive career in the equine industry as a horse trainer with eleven world’s championships, movie stuntman, and natural horsemanship trainer. In 1997, he founded the non-profit Join-Up International seeing the need for a school where horse persons could come to learn the concepts and the gestural language of the horse he calls Equus. To assist horse persons to use his discoveries, he created a method called Join-Up® which is based on the way horses communicate in the wild. Moving into the world of helping people was the logical next step in influencing his concepts globally to eliminate violence for both animals and humans. This effort has expanded to include the Horse Sense and Healing program for military and first responders with their families. He also happens to be the first Global Ambassador for The Brooke Animal Charity and visited India on his mission to assist their work there.

Traveling to Brazil recently left me with lots of time to fill. The back of the seat in front of me provided my inflight safety information rather than the human who usually does, so I was drawn to the selection of entertainment offerings as soon as the flight took off. Movies are fine, TV not so much. But I smiled when I saw audio books and podcasts on the list. When did that become a thing? I closed my eyes (something you can’t do with video) and dove in to podcasts.

Over 35 million people listened to podcasts weekly in 2016. Overall, podcast listening increased from 11% to 36%, translating into an estimated population of 98 million (Edison Research).
